Thanks for the info! That prompted me to read up some more on this.RTD is actually quite open and honest about their advertising model [1] and they do provide options to opt out of paid ads [2], so that's definitely an option that we should consider disabling, if we haven't done so already.
At present, I personally feel that the benefits of hosting the docs on their platform vs. doing it on our own infrastructure are an acceptable trade-off for ads, especially if these are about other open source projects only.
As RTD is really an aggregation point for a lot of other open source projects, it may also help us to gain visibility.
Of course, if "natural evolution" really kicks in and things get too intrusive/annoying, we should re-evaluate this and take action accordingly.
